More purses

Here are some more of my purse experiments:
Heart shaped purse. I lined this one - not sure I would do so again as it made the purse quite bulky.

Ruffle purse. A pretty way of using up some scraps. I found the pattern here, but of course I changed it.  On one I used the lining fabric for the front of the purse, and on all of them I aded a press stud fastening and a pretty button.

Pocket purse with curved top. I have a lot of longer zips; these used them effectively.  Yes, of course I used pockets - I still have an abundance of them!

Following on from this, I took the shape of the ruffle purse and put a zip round the semi circle.  This looks complicated but I cut the purse body from some fabric I had already made by sewing strips together.  This one is lined and I will be making more of them.

Monster purse- a variation on the monster phone case. I'm very fond of this and, as it was extremely easy to make, will be making several more.  I might even put a tutorial up eventually!

Another monster case - with the zip as the mouth this time.

Finally, another ruffle purse.  The idea came from one I had seen online but, as I couldn't find the instructions when I was looking for it again, I made all the measurements up!

I will definitely be making more of the ruffle pouches, monster purses and curved pouches and, as I still have lots of front pockets to use up, I suspect more pocket purses are in the pipeline as well.
